Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has appealed to the chiefs, clergy and Muslim clerics and the youth of Dzodze in Ketu North Constituency to repose confidence in him to resolve their challenges.The community is bedeviled with water and road problems, and the lack of support for their rice production business.Dr Bawumia who visited Dzodze as part of his Volta Region tour, assured them of fixing the challenges when they vote for him."I will give you technical and vocational school … we have state of the art equipment we need to bring some to the school here.""The town roads is another major problem that we need to address as quickly as possible.
The water treatment facilities and also basically most of the Ketu North communities lack water, our population has really outgrown the community."We need to bring in Ghana Water and expand the water facilities, including water treatment.
The population has outgrown what was done initially," Bawumia noted.He said under his presidency he will set up a mechanized system to support rice production."By the grace of God if I become president my number one priority will be agriculture because sixty percent of our population are farmers so if agriculture doesn't do well our economy cannot do well.
We need to support our farmers with the proper seeds, with the proper fertilizer and with irrigation," he assured.The NPP flagbearer further stated that "So far as I know, Ketu North you are the highest rice producers here in Ghana.
